Gotta say I love this car! What a blast to drive:D . I completed my first Mod tonight by adding the Alta air intake and blue silicone pipe. My next mod will probably be exhaust and brakes. Have any of you tracked you Mini with the stock setup? How does it handle on the track?

BTW - Mini owners seem pretty cool, Already got to waves from other Mini drivers

Here's a pic!

Congrats,

MINI drivers are cool I always honk and wave, and almost alway get the wave back. The only times I don't the driver seems to have this other worldly look of bliss - I understand that feeling.

Have fun, have you named your MINI yet?

Welcome SDC! Nice lookin' ride you've got
there! (I mean the car!) (sorry)

So... your first mod wasn't to replace the
stock shift ****?

God speed.

Welcome, dude. :smile:

So, a Porsche, a Ferrari and a MINI, eh? I guess that says something good about the MINI!
